Royalty free music
Twitter is fantastic. Today, one of my Yr 12 students asked if I knew where he could get some Royalty free music for his iMedia coursework. Normally, I would have gone to google and done the usual searches, or told him to do the same. This time I tried twitter. One simple request and over the next few hours I gathered a few very good websites. The results I have posted below.

These are all fantastic websites where you can either access free material or purchase large quantities of Royalty free music which can then be stored locally. The only downside I have is that because most of these sites offer a download as an MP3 our Internet Provider (SWGFL) filters the download. So pupils have to access it from home and then bring it in. This is irritating.
Can I once again thank all the people/companies that responded to my quest. As a weird side effect to the request, I have had a few new followers, all music related. :)
Thanks for this. My students have had to add music to a presentation and we struggled to find music which wasn’t entirely classical. (Not their choice!) Now I have a range of sites to choos from. :0)
